¿De Dónde Vengo?
Las Pastillas Del Abuelo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Justo entienderon todo
cuando no habia mas nada que entender
La gloria a veces
sabe bastante incierta
Intentando ponerle un apodo a eso
que bien sabe llamarse amor
En cierta forma dandose tregua
Y uno mas uno dio tres

Comprobando la teoria de que
es factible envejecer
Tantos años como la noche convenga
Diendose cuenta un buen dia
que abotonarse tambien puede ser
Calor, sustento, refugio, comida
Y uno mas uno dio tres

Cuando se expande el ombligo
la matematica pende de un hilo
y vos con una regla en la mano




contando semanas
Y uno mas uno da tres

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "¿De Dónde Vengo?" by Las Pastillas Del Abuelo deal with the concept of love in a non-linear way. The opening lines, "Justo entienderon todo cuando no habia mas nada que entender" ("They just understood everything when there was nothing left to understand"), suggest that true understanding of love only happens when all other options have been exhausted. The following line, "La gloria a veces sabe bastante incierta" ("Glory can sometimes be quite uncertain"), further emphasizes the unpredictable nature of love.


The second stanza contains an interesting play on words, as the singer tries to "ponerle un apodo a eso que bien sabe llamarse amor" ("give a nickname to that which is well-known as love"). In other words, the singer is trying to categorize or define something that is inherently fluid and constantly changing. The line "Y uno mas uno dio tres" ("And one plus one equals three") further emphasizes the idea that love cannot be easily quantified or measured.


The final stanza delves into the idea of time and aging, suggesting that as we get older, our understanding of love evolves. The line "Es factible envejecer tantos años como la noche convenga" ("It's possible to age as many years as the night allows") suggests that the passage of time is subjective and that love can endure despite the natural process of aging. The phrase "Y uno mas uno dio tres" is repeated, emphasizing that love cannot be easily reduced to a simple formula or equation.
